摘　　要：最近在阿富汗昆都士地区发现了一面带有独特中国装饰纹样的带柄镜子,该文物很可能是十一世纪末或十二世纪初在中国制造的。由于带把手的镜子从来都不是预制的,虽然它被称为中国形制,但无疑是为了出口到当时占领中国北部的辽国而制造的。它很可能是在华北某的一家辽国赞助的商店中制造的。公元1125年,辽军战败后,阿富汗昆都士形制的镜子与其他类似的铜镜一起,被契丹难民西行带至七河地区。契丹人(现在的喀喇契丹人),在迅速适应新环境后,将他们的新帝国又向西扩展至花刺子模帝国。昆都士形制的镜子可能是这次征途的物质记录。A handle-bearing mirror with distinctive Chinese decor recently found in the region of Kunduz,Afghanistan,was probably made in China toward the end of the eleventh or beginning of the twelfth century.Since the handle-bearing mirror has never been the pre¬ferred Chinese form,it was doubtless made for export to the Liao kingdom then occupying the northern part of China.Possibly it was made in North China in a shop under Liao patronage.With the defeat of the Liao in 1125,the Kunduz mirror,together with other similar ones,was carried by the Khitan refugees westward to Semirechye.After a rapid adjustment to their new environment,eased by the earlier infiltration of this region by their numbers,the Khitan,now the Kara-Khitay,spread their new empire by 1141 as far west as Khwarezm.The Kunduz mirror is possibly a material record of this conquest.
